EDITORS COMMENTS
Andre-Adolphe-Eugene Disderi's panorama: group portrait of soldiers, 1870, captures a striking image of the 7th battalion during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871. The black and white albumen print, taken on albumin paper, showcases the soldiers standing in a line, each with a direct gaze towards the camera. The soldiers are dressed in their military uniforms, complete with belts, bayonets, and caps. The apparel of the soldiers reflects the defensive nature of the battalion, with their coats buttoned up and collars pulled tight. The image, housed in the Musee Carnavalet in Paris, Ile de France, France, is a testament to the historic moment in the country's military history. The soldiers, who were part of the Garde Nationale, are arranged in a panoramic format, filling the entire frame of the photograph. Each man is positioned with a slight forward lean, giving the impression of readiness and alertness. The soldiers' uniforms, with their intricate details and patterns, are a fascinating glimpse into the fashion of the 19th century military. The image is a graphic representation of the concept of defense and the role of the armed forces during a time of war. The soldiers' intense gaze and the sense of unity in the group portrait add to the powerful impact of the image. The letterbox format of the photograph, with its elongated shape, further emphasizes the panoramic nature of the image, giving the viewer a sense of the vastness of the scene. The soldiers, standing proudly in their military uniforms, serve as a reminder of the rich military heritage of France and the sacrifices made during the Siege of Paris.
